Job Description

Do you want to be part of making a difference? If you are not already a trained security guard, Securitas will cover the cost of your training prior to employment.

As a patrolling security guard, your primary task is to deliver security at our customers' locations – primarily at industries, offices, and workshops – by protecting property and buildings against fire, theft, and damage. Typically, you are the one who manages the alarm systems and reports using a computerized patrol information system. The work is independent and often perceived as free, but comes with great responsibility.

As a stationary security guard, your primary task is to deliver security to one of our customers by being attentive and ensuring that everything is in order. Often you work at the entrance to a larger company and check those passing in and out, but you can also perform patrols and camera surveillance. The tasks vary from customer to customer. One works independently and under their own responsibility.

The positions suit those who like to work with people and help them in their everyday lives. As a security guard at our office in Avesta, you will become part of a tight-knit team of 40 people. The tasks are highly varied, and as a security guard, you can work both indoors and outdoors, night or day. The length of the shifts varies, but they are often 12-hour shifts, either day or night. Since we are an operation that is running every day of the year, working every other weekend is common.

We are security. We are Securitas.
